An alumnae chapter is a group of Theta alumnae that has been granted a charter from Grand Council.

To receive a charter, the group must have at least 10 active members in good standing; to maintain its charter, the group must have at least five active members in good standing.

Alumnae chapters offer a variety of programs and events to meet the needs and interests of their membership. These could include community volunteer involvement, networking opportunities, philanthropic projects, social events, and meetings with themes or guest speakers. Many alumnae chapters also offer "special interest" groups, such as a downtown lunch group, a gardening group, or a recent graduates group.

You don't have to wait for an invitation! An alumna is always welcome at an alumnae chapter meeting. And alumnae chapters involve a very small time commitment: between three and eight meetings or special events per year.

Members of alumnae chapters pay annual per capita dues of $15 to the Fraternity through their alumnae chapters. Chapters determine an additional amount for local dues to cover chapter operating expenses.

Nine alumnae chapters are testing an online payment system for chapter and Fraternity dues. Members of those chapters may pay dues via this website. For more information, please refer to the Pay Chapter Dues box to the right.

Other Theta alumnae chapters send dues statements to their membership with various payment options. Discover if there is a chapter in your area.
